The cost of driving on the Pennsylvania turnpike has gone up again. 

Tolls for cash paying customers went up 10-percent. The increase is just 2-percent for drivers using E-Z Pass.

The new rates, which take effect Jan. 6, are expected to generate roughly $25 million in new revenue in 2013.

The toll increase is needed to satisfy the turnpike's obligation to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to help address a transportation-funding shortfall, according to a news release put out by the Pa. Turnpike Commission.

More changes are in the works as turnpike officials consider the possibility of eliminating toll plazas and cash payments.
